Many of us are well aware that you claim to despise abortion, but oppose any laws to end the American Holocaust.
What is it that you and others like you say? Oh yeah, you want abortion to be "safe and legal and rare."
Hank Kerchief is a hit-’n-run, apparently. Having dinner with my wife, sitting and reading while she watches ‘Dances With The Stars’, I’ve given him enough time to reply.
His post made no sense to me. I don’t know what I supposedly lied about, unless it was acquainting fetuses with infants. Not a very conservative minded viewpoint that.
Anyway, I personally can’t get beyond the idea that for whatever reason, rape, incest, [here’s your chance to name one], a decision for abortion is a decision to prevent the life of one who can’t speak for oneself. I shudder when I think of what women who have been subjected to rape and incest go through. I could never attempt to believe I could understand it. But to compound that travesty with a second - the destruction of a life - just isn’t an answer to me.
Wagglebee, I read what you wrote about women you’ve known, and the trauma they’ve been through considering carrying the baby of a rapist. I can’t tell you I could deal with that. That’s why I understand when you speak of some of them committing suicide. But what of the alternative? By aborting the fetus created, aren’t they guilty in God’s eyes of killing their infant? Does God look any differently on that fetus than on one created by its mother and father?
These are all things we as humans have trouble getting our minds around. Our answers, for what they’re worth, are fraught with human frailty at best. And I certainly can’t claim superior knowledge or wisdom. All I can say is, I vote for life. As troubling as that may be, as difficult as I’m sure it is for some to agree, I still vote for life. That infant had no hand in what created its being. It should not be made a victim of our inadequate wisdom.
